It's nice to have a little positive feedback about club organisers for a change. Thank you.

I'm not personally convinced that folk clubs are the only place or even the main place to hear folk music these days...

I don't think anybody is saying they are but they are part of the scene and, I think, a valuable one. I know that the (middle-aged) teenage diary singers and guitar obsessives exist but they are a tiny minority and easily avoided. It doesn't help the future of folk clubs if Folkiedave goes around telling the world that's what they are like.

You should get out more Dave. Your play list is wonderful and I've seen a lot of them in folk clubs.
